Movement Question
Say Country 1 has units A and B and Country 2 has units C and D. What would happen if A supports B to C, and C supports D to B at the same time? Do the moves cancel out, or does B move to C (dislodging it) and D moves to B?

No Build phase
Hey guys. I'm a new user and I'm playing a game with friend (ID is 206642) and I'm wondering if there is a bug or a rule we missed. I'm playing as Germany and I have 6 supply centers, 5 units and no build phase. I'm also curious if the game didn't register a capture of a supply center. I was in Warsaw and then took Moscow the next turn. I captured Moscow and not Warsaw. Can a vet help out some newbies?

Hey guys I'd appreciate it if you could recommend music that's helpful for studying. I ( like many) find it difficult to concentrate on immediate concerns like getting physics homework out of the way or starting a paper on whatever subject. I've tried classical music and it helps though some classical music I imagine is better than others for this. If you can recommend artists I'd appreciate it.

This is really fucking bizarre. Our census is tallying Jorgenson and Cllr Kench have both had badges used in two different places. Unless Kench and Jorgenson are teleporting places.... someone has forged ID cards of them. Or.. I cannot compute. Also...

This is General Jorgenson. This wont make a lot of sense to any of you. In the future just a few hours from now Byron will order the secret service to help him commit a genocide.
I have logs proving this. I brought them and surveillance videos. I acted alone and killed Byron. I also killed Silas.
I stole a transport, kidnapped kench and time traveled without permission to set things right. I am turning myself in and pleading guilty to the Ocularans. Ynbar will not suffer because of me. I love this planet and well...

Here they are....the time travel fried the log. Read from.bottom up.

WEBDIP SCI -FI SIMULATOR 2
Rules for webdip simulator

1) Players are encouraged to participate, discuss and strategize ways to grow their colony. Players get a unique role, and each phase make proposals how to improve things.

2) Events each phase are determined at random on a scale of degree of difficulty. The game is intended to be challenging, fun, and engaging. The GM will not rig the game to be more difficult, however as populations grow, and crisis can come into play; a colonial collapse is always possible.

3) to vote for legislation each councillor may propose an idea and say ##Proposal 1.0 followed by the content. For any proposal to be considered it must be seconded. To vote for a proposal you say ##Vote Yes on 1.0 - or if you are against it say ##Vote No on 1.0. Votes will be tallied throughout the phase.

4) Phases adjudicate every 48 hours at 3pm CDT. If no legislation is submitted and no votes received, the phase will adjudicate accordingly.

5) Managing your Requisites
You lose the game if you run out of food, if your people lose all morale, if you run out of money, if you run out of fuel or if public health runs out. Each phase your population consumes an amount of food equal to itself. 3 population eats 3 food. 5 eats 5. If you have 3 population and 2 food, the population will starve and the colony will begin to collapse.

6) There is no win condition. You play for as long as you can. However it is possible to create a colony that stands the test of time and is succesful.

7) Opting out. Any time you need to quit simply PM the GM and let them know.

8) Opting in. See above.

9) Cheating: it is impossible to cheat. You can choose to work against the colony but they can choose to simply have you banished or executed.

10) If you are forum silenced you may not participate.

11) Please use the same conduct you would in any normal forum discussion while playing.

12) role playing is welcome and not required. You can name your character and do anything you want with them. You can marry other players and have children if you really want to. You can even mate with aliens. Totally yer call.

*****13) Use your imagination. The GM will work with whatever ideas you want to add to the game. Nothing is out of the question. Incorporate ideas from your favorite sci fi shows, movies, video games and board games if you want. Anything can be incorporated as this is your colony.*******

Rule 13 includes going off the deep end and distributing smallpox blankets, nuking your own colony, bombing the congo. If you wanna be a psycho abd try to kill the colony you can. Byron did. I hooe this puts this debate to rest. Its in the rules.

Rule 9 also states there is NO CHEATING. Wanting to kill the colony and be a dick is not cheating. The colony can just execute you for being a dick.

Rule 7 means a frustrated player can just leave. Self explanatory.

(Let me be clear. I do believe that there should be a limit to what a player can do on their own. What Bryon did was a little extreme but we found a work around and got things working again. While I believe this, I also believe players should have that freedom. Its much more fun to fix someone's massive blunder, such as the case was with Maltir's hack, than to go with the status quo. What Bryon did could have shaken this game at its foundation but we retconned it. I was against the time travel for this very reason. A player may wreck the game but it also gives you new opportunities. We could have become a council of pirates, stealing from colonies to improve our own. We could have had an coup. We could have even pulled it back from disaster. But we decided, as a group to time travel back. That would never have happened otherwise. These crazy moments are important to the game and make it interesting. As Two-Face said, "Either you die the hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain." Bryon became the villain. Now were left with the aftermath. The world waits not for the slow or weak. We have to be the leaders the people of YnBar deserve. I'll leave it to you to figure out how to accomplish that)

I honestly don't think it's the GM's fault that this happened. It's our fault for giving CommanderByron so much power. We always knew that his character was unstable, yet we allowed him to take away the legislative process (it seems some players *cough* Bladerunners *cough* wanted that to happen anyways) and make everything about executive action. Without any checks to such executive action, something like this was pretty much inevitable if we let the game run on long enough. Heck, even I could have had the military do the same thing. If we had kept to the original legislative process, something like this could never have happened. The President was never meant to have so much power. When I was President, the only power I had was to make 1 veto per phase (I never even used it once) and give some speeches (just like everyone else). You can't veto your way to destroying your own colony (well, you can, but it's much more difficult).

As the most senior remaining member of this council, I am calling for an election this phase and am also running for President. As President, I pledge to return us to the proposal format of running things. There will be no ministers and no executive action, and I will try to use my veto power sparingly.

Regarding the actual game, I plead the case that the massacre that happened was absolutely not necessary. It's just a case of a normal person with power suddenly becoming a madman. Therefore, we are not guilty of abuse of time travel power.

Regarding the legislation passed by Congress, I repeat the votes that I made in the previous version of this phase.

Regarding NAL, I propose

##Proposal 16.1 Bring Alex to NAL with a fleet of 5 battleships (attached to save oil) and 2 fighters (docked to battleships) and have him use mind meld on Xavier Musk. Try to eliminate Racunar once and for all. He can even practice it on me to be prepared.

Racunar is a malevolent member of the species known as Khamaloids. They can take various shapes and forms and are therefore difficult to hunt down. We first encountered Racunar as a human woman named Gita. She stole our insecticide formula and killed President Leon. Later, the Croatians captured her and uploaded her knowledge to their database, but from there she took over, destroyed their colony, and took control of a satellite known as DS5. We destroyed DS5, but by then she had used mind meld to take control of Xavier Musk, the CEO of Space X. The Space X satellite DS4 is currently bombarding the NAL planet, and Racunar will soon mind meld with the NAL leader, Odunlade. We need to stop Racunar before she can do that.

**Ocularans**
We have reviewed the incident and have determined that the aura and residual effect of even a brief ripple in time has had what may be a history changing event. Your colony however is not responsible. This individual General Jorgenson has accepted responsibility on your behalf. We have teleported him to our ship along with his simulacrum. You had a simulacrum of a Cllr Kench as well. We have fixed this issue as well. The future version of Kench was a wreck and suffering from PTSD from what he saw.

¤Your colony may never use time travel again. If you are discovered to ever use time travel as a colony you will be imprisoned as a council.
¤You may not develop warp drives

¤In one years time you may appeal to be allowed a warp drive program.( Phase 26)

¤Also as a side note, we think there may be another time traveler in your sector. Infirnation about them if you hear anything is most appreciated.

Unless anyone objects, Alex will be on Battleship Belgrade. I'm glad that other colonies are joining us this time. We should of course take the mole ship after scanning it for viruses. Who is Chelmy?

Poolio, I believe that the other time traveler is the skaregg king, who went back in time for some cheese. I doubt that the action created great ripples, and the skaregg are also our allies.
